    I agree with Roach. I'd like to see Cotto ice Pac but I just can't see it happening, Pac is too fast and will land too many lefts and combinations. It's gonna be an awesome fight though.

        This is what i think. I'm a Cotto fan and a Hatton fan, but not a DLH fan. With Cotto vs. Pacquiao, i think Pacman's speed is unbelievably fast in comparison to Cotto's. Cotto does have solid body shots and can box. Even if Pacman's power may not be as compelling as Cotto's, i still believe Pacman's speed will be the defining factor of the fight.


        Cotto's has a fcukin tough left. Hooks, jabs, uppercuts all that *****. But Pac's a southpaw. Left hand vs. Left hand. So it boils down to power vs. speed. As far as boxing skill is concerned; Pac's boxing is increasing, but Cotto is the more conventional boxer i think.

        This fight "should be" good. But with Pacquiao you never know.
